was named Albany Woman of the Year for 2010 by Assemblywoman Nancy Skinner.

were chosen because they had gone above and beyond the call of duty to
make a significant difference in their communities. Eileen has served

workshops throughout the Western United States. Her scholarly work and
editions of music have been published by C.F. Peters, Indiana University

Having grown up in the multi-cultural milieu of Lebanon, special
interests in early music involve studying what was being composed and
performed outside the mainstream of Western Europe, and she has developed
numerous workshop topics and concert programs exploring music in
Spanish America, French Canada, Ireland and Scotland, Scandinavia,
Eastern Europe and the Baltic countries, as well as music by women.
Eileen's hobbies include immersing herself in novels set in different
cultures, learning languages, yoga, gentle hikes, gardening,
international fairs, foreign movies, and trying out new ethnic
restaurants.

In sixth grade sackbut and recorder player Greg Ingles
decided he wanted to play a
brass instrument in band. Since his older sister already
played the French horn, he decided to take up the trombone.
Greg attended high school at the Interlochen Arts Academy and
went on to the Oberlin Conservatory.
Two days after graduation Greg won the position of Solo Trombone
in the Hofer Symphoniker in Hof, Germany. He returned to the
United States and completed both a Master's and Doctorate
degree in trombone performance at SUNY Stony Brook. It was
during his graduate work that Greg became acquainted with
the sackbut and historical performance. Soon after
beginning his early music studies Greg became a member of
Piffaro, The Renaissance Band. He has since played with
such ensembles as the American Bach Soloists, Chatham Baroque,
Chiaroscuro, Concerto Palatino, the Toronto Consort and Tafelmusik.
Greg is also a member of Ciaramella and has just completed a
recording with this group on the Yarlung Records label.
Mr. Ingles has also recorded with Anakekta, Centaur, Dorian,
